Luck egalitarianism and non‐overlapping generations

This paper argues that there are good reasons to limit the scope of luck egalitarianism co-existing people. First, I outline be sceptical about how “luck” works intergenerationally and therefore very grounding between non-overlapping generations. Second, argue what Kasper Lippert-Rasmussen calls “core egalitarian claim” allows significant intergenerational inequality which is a problem for those who object such inequality. Third, cannot accommodate intuition it might required leave future generations better off than we are, even if would come at no cost ourselves. Finally, following another, broader, version require us level down possibly ourselves, persuaded by levelling-down objection.
